LeSean McCoy wants Donald Trump to DJ his dry party, bars Hulk Hogan

LeSean McCoy wanted to throw a bash this weekend but, after catching a lot of flack from the media and Internet — and the NFL because he violated the copyright of the Buffalo Bills logo — his planned ladies-only pre-training camp party plans got squashed.


Seems Shady made it a point to invite everyone but Hulk Hogan.

LeSean McCoy leaves 20 cent tip at Philly burger joint (PHOTO)

Eagles running back LeSean McCoy lost at least one fan after leaving a 20 cent tip on a $61.56 check at a Philadelphia burger joint Monday.

That's 20 cent, not percent.

After the NFL star stiffed the waiter, the restaurant posted a photo of the check on their Facebook page to publicly shame the cheapskate.

“That is a .03% tip,” PYT posted on its Facebook page. “New record!”



The 26-year-old All Pro stopped by the restaurant in the Northern Liberties section of Philadelphia with four “rude and loud” friends, an employee told the Philadelphia Daily News.

When served their meal, the group was not impressed, asking, “What is this s---?” waiter Rob Knelly told the newspaper.

"I wasn’t surprised [by the tip], I saw it coming,” he said. “They were extremely rude. I kept my cool for as along as I could, where you just don’t want them yelling and cursing you."



McCoy, known by his nickname “Shady,” picked up the bill with his credit card.

He signed a five-year, $45 million contract extension with the Eagles in 2012.

DeSean Jackson calls LeSean McCoy the 'only real one' on Eagles: Report

LeSean McCoy seems to be the only Philadelphia Eagles player to publicly come out and admit that the team will miss DeSean Jackson since his release March 28.

“I mean, it’s a surprise for sure,” LeSean McCoy said Saturday of the former Eagles' Pro Bowl receiver. “I think anyone that tells you that they’re happy with it is … I don’t know how honest that would be.”

And now Jackson took to Instagram to pay back the shout-out and thank his former teammate for his support, reports NJ.com.

Jackson posted a picture of the two with the following caption, insinuating McCoy is "the only real one" of his former teammates.

"MY BRO THE ONLY REAL ONE !! REAL FRIENDS STAND UP IN REAL TIMES !! LUV LIL BRA !! WE GONNA HAVE A BALL PLAYING AGAINST EACH OTHER GONNA B DIFFERENT BUT WE GOTTA BATTLE !! "






McCoy is one teammate who was really close with Jackson during his time in Philadelphia. The Pro Bowl running back recently wondered why teammates who have been interviewed over the past two weeks have not come out in support of Jackson.  And how that deafening silence may be a sign they were glad to see Jackson go. 

"I think anybody that tells you that they’re happy about it, I don’t know how honest that would be," McCoy said recently to Eagles 24/7. "So when you say he didn’t bond with the team, I don’t know what that means because I was a teammate and we bonded."


The Eagles released the 27-year-old Jackson last month following reports the team had concerns about Jackson's off-the-field issues, including the company he kept and his relationship with head coach Chip Kelly.

The wideout quickly signed with the Washington Redskins.

LeSean McCoy unveils a rushing title championship belt and LeBron James gets jealous

LeSean McCoy had a championship belt slung over his shoulder during a victorious postgame chat with NBC’s Michelle Tafoya. When asked about it, McCoy, this season's NFL rushing champion, laughed about the golden trophy you wear around your waist.

“It’s a joke. My friend, he’s from Texas, he told me he was going to give me the rushing title belt if we won the game, so here it is right here.”



Dejected Cowboys fan LeBron James was so enamoured of the gilded belt, he blasted out a tweet wondering where he could get one.


Luckily for LeBron, The Rock was there to help.
Now King James has a belt to match his crown.

LeSean McCoy's jersey makes it to Hall of Fame (VIDEO)

LeSean McCoy is officially in the Hall of Fame — or at least his jersey is.

Here's a video of McCoy's jersey, shoes and gloves officially arriving in the Hall of Fame after he broke Steve Van Buren's single game rushing record this past Sunday against the Lions on the snow-covered field at Lincoln Financial.



McCoy finished with 217 yards and two touchdowns, both of which came in the second half of the game. McCoy has had a lot of great moments with the Eagles, but this past Sunday might have been his signature moment, and one that will always be remembered by the Philly fans.

And now, will also be forever immortalized in the Hall of Fame.

Osi Umenyiora apologizes for calling LeSean McCoy a mother

Osi Umenyiora has apologized for offending women with his "Happy Mother's Day" tweet to Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy.

The New York Giants defensive end sent the apology via Twitter from Europe in response to an article on ESPN's website which criticized Umenyiora's insult to his NFL and Twitter rival by calling him a woman.

"Replace 'woman' with race, religion or sexual orientation and the reaction would be far different," wrote ESPN's Sarah Spain.  "Just imagine the response from the media and fans if Unmenyiora had tweeted McCoy 'Happy Gay Pride Day.'"

Umenyiora agreed with the writer's point of view and said: "@Sarah Spain is absolutely correct in her article.  I wasn't thinking about it from that perspective.  I apologize to any woman offended.  It won't happen again."



Umenyiora— who missed the Giants' Super Bowl ring ceremony on Wednesday night because he was in Germany— has insulted McCoy before— by referring to him in the feminine gender— after the running back started a Twitter war with Umenyiora last spring.  McCoy used Twitter to describe Umenyiora as "Overrated n soft 3rd best d-line on his team honestly" during contract talks with the Giants.

The defensive end responded by calling McCoy a "little girl, "Lady Gaga," and "a woman"— un-respectively.  He also called him a "Twitter gangster."

On Sunday, after a lengthy truce in exchanging tweets, Umenyiora surprised everyone by tweeting a message to McCoy which read: "Happy Mother's Day LeSean McCoy! Enjoy your special day!"

One person on Twitter thought Umenyiora's apology was an overreaction and told him it was "unfortunate" that people can't take a joke these days.

Umenyiora didn't see it that way and looked at the big picture.

"You have to look at things from other people's perspective sometimes," he responded.  "A joke to me and you might actually offend others."

Spain—via Twitter— told Umenyiora it was "so fantastic of you to actually read the piece and really think about the issue."

Responded Umenyiora: "I always try and look at things from someone else's perspective when it's called to my attention.  You article is the truth."

Maybe this will put an end to this Umenyiora -McCoy Twitter feud.  Settle it on the field guys.

Osi Umenyiora wishes Eagles' McCoy a Happy Mother's Day

The Umenyiora-McCoy family feud sounds like it's heating up once again.  The New York Giants defensive end took a swipe at the Philadelphia Eagles running back when he sent this message on Twitter to his rival McCoy: "Happy Mother's Day LeSean McCoy!  Enjoy your special day!"

Osi Umenyiora's days as a Giant may be numbered but his disdain of LeSean McCoy can still be counted on.

About an hour and a half later after Osi's 9:30 a.m. post, McCoy tweeted back: "Lol let the beef begin."

He must have meant let the beef "continue" because these two guys have been ripping each other since last year when McCoy teased Umenyiora during his contract dispute with the Giants last spring by calling him "Overrated n soft 3rd best d-line on his own team."

Umenyiora responded by calling McCoy "Lady Gaga," a "woman," and a "little girl."



"He ran his mouth," Umenyiora said at the time.  "He crossed the line that shouldn't have been crossed." He also called McCoy a "Twitter gangster."

Former Giants running back Brandon Jacobs— now with the 49ers— also joined in on Sunday's tweet-fest.

"omg hahah," wrote Jacobs.  "hahaha u know the beef isn't never over.  Never."

It sounds like Umenyiora won't let this Twitter war subside soon.  After someone tweeted to him to "be an adult and set an example for your son," the Giants player responded, "When someone attacks you for no reason, attack back, and never stop attacking."

Osi Umenyiora Calls LeSean McCoy a 'Chihuahua or Poodle'

New York Giants defensive end, Osi Umenyiora, is still making a lot of noise one day after leaking bits of an affidavit claiming that New York Giants GM Jerry Reese reneged on a verbal agreement to renegotiate his contract.  Now, when Umenyiora should be in some sort of spin control, he has stirred up more controversy by comparing Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy to a yapping, little lap dog.

After Umenyiora's story broke on Thursday afternoon, McCoy Tweeted that Umenyiora was "overrated n soft."  McCoy also called Umenyiora the "3rd best d-line on his team honestly."

In a phone interview with The New York Times, Umenyiora responded to McCoy's tweet.

"That little chihuahua or poodle in the backfield," steamed Umenyiora.  "He doesn't have to block me.  If you have something to say, say it man to man; you can't be a Twitter gangster.  That's easy to do, trying to be a tough guy.  Say it to my face, and we'll see what happens."

Or you can say it in an affidavit to be filed in Minneapolis next month.

Umenyiora goes on to say that the G-Men's defense has a pet name for McCoy: "Lady Gaga."  The Giants defensive end doesn't elaborate on how the nickname came about.

McCoy hasn't replied to Umenyiora's diss, but he might start by reminding him that the Eagles are 4-0 against the Giants with the speedster in the backfield and then go all Twitter gangster by throwing in a video of his game-winning run through Umenyiora's fingertips and the Giants defense last season. 

The G-Men's defense had so many holes against the Eagles in that epic New York fail last season, McCoy might think of calling them the Kardashians.

While Umenyiora goes off on McCoy, it looks like his stance against the Giants has softened.

According to the Times interview, Osi did an about face and revealed his deep love for the team from the Meadowlands.

Umenyiora said he'd be happy to return to New York, even after, in that sworn affidavit, called Reese a liar for going back on a two-year old verbal commitment to renegotiate his contract after the 2010 season.

"I love my teammates.  The owners of the team, Mr. Mara and Mr. Tisch, I'm really cool with both of them," said Umenyiora.  "They came to the hospital when I was injured...I don't have a beef with them per se.  At the end of the day, they're going to have to make the best decision for them."

Umenyiora's case is notable mostly because he is one of the plaintiffs named in the ongoing anti-trust case against the NFL.

Finally, some spinning and less stirring from the disgruntled Giant.  Stay tuned.
